B10.8.4 Media Changer Devices - Windows Experience B10.8.4.1 If CD or DVD changer device supports 7 discs or less, comply with MMC-2
If an ATAPI-compatible CD changer is present that has a capacity for seven or fewer discs, the device must comply with MMC-2 standard. This includes changers that support the following drive/media types:
-
3.5-inch, 5.25-inch, and 12-inch magneto-optical or phase-change drives and media
It does not include changers that support CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, or DVD drive/media types.
To meet requirements for auto-configuration of changers and their associated drives, the following changer requirements and configuration restrictions are defined:
-
For changers where autoconfiguration under RSM control is a targeted feature, all changer tape or optical disk drives must be connected to the same SCSI bus as the changer.
Changer systems that are not configured this way will not be autoconfigurable under RSM in Windows and must provide documentation that describes the appropriate manual configuration process for use with RSM. Examples of proper documentation are available in Appendix A of Windows NT Removable Storage Manager Programming Documentation, at http://www.highground.com/developer/documents/ntmsdocu.htm.
The Removable Storage Manager functions are documented in the Microsoft Platform SDK at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/zaw/ntms_api_5nz9.htm.
-
If drive cleaning is required and can be automated, a specific slot that is accessible by way of a Move Medium command must be designated in the Operator’s Guide.
-
The changer must be able to report if a bar-code reader is installed in the unit.
The changer must be able to report on the current of (magazine) slots and drives by using the Read Element Status command.
